In this short 2.5D arcade/action game, control a giant mutant lizard to eat people, crush cars, and throw things. Spend points on upgrades and new abilities and try to survive an increasingly deadly hail of bullets.
Features

Three Game modes:
- Story Mode - Play as the lizard and rampage your way through three main levels and two bosses with a few cutscenes along the way. Unlock two other monsters for arcade mode.
- Arcade Mode - Choose from three monsters and try to survive as long as you can. No bosses. No cutscenes.
- Practice Mode - Relax and practice your moves without getting shot at. Get a feel for the controls and throw stuff at targets.
Three Unique Monsters:
- The first creature uses its tail to grab and throw anything it can lift. The two unlockable ones each have their own way of tossing things.
- Each one has its own practice level, tailored to the monster's abilities.
- Each monster has over two dozen animations, plus an IK system to move the character's neck and head (so the monster can look at the annoying jerk who keep shooting it).
Upgrades:
Spend the points that you get from eating people to improve stats like health and armor, and unlock the ability to pick up cars and stomp on things.

Version 0.8.2

Hi everyone!

I have another update to talk about before this game leaves early access. A few of the people who played the mobile version have requested special abilities like breathing fire. I hadn't planned on doing that earlier, but it didn't seem like a bad idea to me, so I spent a few weekends adding a new ability for each of the monsters. The special attacks need to be unlocked just like the normal attacks, but they are triggered by holding the secondary attack button for about a second, then aim and release. The special attacks can only be used once every couple of seconds.

I also added a simple little feature, just for the hell of it: Throw and catch someone repeatedly without letting them hit the ground. The more times you catch them, the more points you get. There's not really any point to this, I just figured it would be fun for a couple minutes.

I plan to take this game out of early access soon, even though it's still a really short game. I think I can make something much better if I start fresh with the things I learned from making this game. I plan to focus on fixing bugs in the next couple weeks and then release the game with the fourth monster and the new location.
